You are on an interstellar mission from the Earth to the 8.7 light-years distant star Sirius. Your spaceship can travel with 70% the speed of light and has a cylindrical shape with a diameter of 6 m at the front surface and a length of 25 m. You have to cross the interstellar medium with an approximated density of 1 hydrogen atom/m3 . (a) Calculate the time it takes your spaceship to reach Sirius. (b) Determine the mass of interstellar gas that collides with your spaceship during the mission. Note: Use 1.673 × 10−27 kg as proton mass.
